Actually, as I think of it, I think the vnode pager would also be the part used faulting pages in and out of mmap()'d files, which could point at the database. Memory pressure from that wouldn't result in swapping, since clean pages would just get tossed and dirty pages would be synced and tossed. In that case it may not be so much a 'problem', as just 'normal' for your case, and your actual problem may be somewhat elsewhere. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
